George Kittle, who tore his Achilles in January, remains hopeful he can play Week 1, with progress shown in running routes and social media clips. While the 49ers plan to start camp with him on the active/PUP list, teammates and coachs say he’s in a good spot and chasing Week 1, possibly even the Australia kickoff in Melbourne, though travel could affect inflammation and blood flow. General manager John Lynch said Kittle is “doing really well” and pushing to be ready, with Week 1 availability contingent on camp progress. The 49ers have placed Kittle on the active/PUP list to begin camp, while signing Tanner McLachlan and waiving Evan Anderson and Khalil Dinkins as part of roster moves. If Kittle isn’t ready for Week 1, a Week 2 or 3 debut remains possible, depending on camp pace and rehab progress. Updated reports from Bleacher Report emphasize that the timeline remains fluid and contingent on rehab progress.
